So said the Daily News today in reference to the horrific murder of Tiesha Sargeant, who was shot execution style in her apartment in the early hours of May 14th. The assailants, who broke into the apartment by climbing up the fire escape in the rear of the building, were seeking revenge on her boyfriend, reportedly a drug dealer.

The upsetting details of Tiesha's death are many: her young age, long list of accomplishments and bright future. We're also particularly troubled by her murder's apparent view that she was an appropriate target for getting back at Keeve Huggins, her boyfriend - as if she were his property.

We'll post updates on the case as we hear about details and (hopefully) arrests.

When ATP picked up our newly clean underwear from the laundromat on Lincoln Rd. today, we learned some disturbing news. Earlier today, the laundromat operators had a run-in with a seriously disgruntled customer.

Apparently, one of the washing machines was not functioning properly. When the owner went to repair the machine, a female customer somehow construed his actions as an accusation that she had broken the machine. Though he told her that it was not her fault, she became agitated and became violent. She then left, returned to the laundromat with a hammer and tried to attack the woman who works at the laundromat.

The owner and the woman (we do not know their relationship to one another) looked OK but shook up early this evening. The owner told us that the attacker will be charged (most likely with assault, we guess) and tried. Though ATP has criticized the laundromat's pricing for shirts, the laundromat always does a great job with our laundry and we greatly appreciate their laundry service.

Hearing of their ordeal made ATP sad. As you enjoy this holiday weekend, stop in and offer the laundromat operators your love and support.
